The Gamebred Bareknuckle MMA event promoted by Jorge Masvidal featured bare-knuckle MMA competition. Two Russian fighters competed: Nikolai Kovalenko (11-2), known from RCC and Titans, and Denis Petrov (1-1). Kovalenko dominated early but fatigued and lost by disqualification, while Petrov knocked out his opponent despite nearly being finished himself. Former UFC fighters Anthony Smith, Chase Sherman, Luis Peña, and Thiago Santos also competed, with Smith returning from retirement with a blacked-out arm tattoo and defeating Sherman. The reviewer found the event disappointing overall, citing mediocre production, mostly dull fights, and faded names despite the unusual format.
